I have split the debugfs support from this patch to its own patch. Any
other idea on how else you'd break the code? I can take one more step
and separate the lower layer from the OS layer by using stub functions
on the initial commit.

probably not, let me see what I can do about them.

OK. I added the following comment to the code.

/*
 * Each DMA channel is associated with an event channel for interrupt
 * delivery. The event channel index usually comes from the firmware through
 * ACPI/DT. When a HIDMA channel is executed in the guest machine
context (QEMU)
 * the device tree gets auto-generated based on the memory and IRQ resources
 * this driver uses on the host machine. Any device specific parameter
such as
 * event-channel gets ignored by the QEMU.
 * We are using this command line parameter to pass the event channel
index to
 * the guest machine.

When a DMA transfer completes, the hidma_callback function in the
hidma.c file gets called from the lower layer (hidma_ll.c) in order to
move this request from active queue into the completed queue.

hidma_process_completed eventually calls the "client callback" in it.

The PM stuff is for guaranteeing that clocks are not turned off while HW
is working on it.

I grab the PM lock in issue pending and release it in the hidma_callback.

I'll add vchan support later on another revision. The original code had
vchan support in it. It became a terminology mess. So, I removed it for
the moment.

Using vchan, I can take multiple clients and serve them in a single
channel later.

OK. I didn't know that. I'll try pm_runtime_get first. If it fails, I'll
post a task to do the real job with pm_runtime_get_sync.

The clocks may be off by the time the request is made. I need to grab
the PM lock before accessing the HW registers.

The channel can be paused by the hypervisor. If it is paused, then no
other transaction will go through including the pending requests. That's
why, I'm checking the state first.

The channels can be paused by the hypervisor at runtime after the guest
OS boot. The client might have allocated the channels during guest
machine boot. If a channel is paused and client makes a request, client
will never get the callback. By placing this check, I'm looking at the
runtime status of the channel and rejecting the transmit request right
ahead.

I'll change it, but why would anyone allocate a channel in an interrupt
handler?

It means that the code only supports interrupt. Maybe, you can correct
me here. I couldn't see a very useful info about the DMA engine flags.
My understanding is that DMA_CTRL_ACK means user wants an interrupt
based callback.

If DMA_CTRL_ACK is not specified, then user wants to poll for the
results. The current code only supports the interrupt based delivery for
callbacks. Polling support is another to-do in my list for small sized
transfers.

I copied this function from another driver. The cookie/unmap business
seemed scary to me. Can you point me to a good/recent implementation if
this is deprecated?

Why is it limited to the slave device only? I can queue a bunch of
requests. I can pause and resume their execution with the current
implementation.

why? I shutdown the IRQ in hidma_ll_uninit and request the interrupt
with devm_request_irq. As soon as this driver is removed, the interrupt
should be released by the managed code.
